The Down Side of Good Vision: Seeing All the Grime

Too busy to say much because I realize just how dirty everything is around here, now that my eyes are working as they should.  People had warned me that I might be surprised/shocked at how old I and others around me had grown, so I was prepared for that after the cataract operation.

What I  wasn't prepared for was the highly visible proof that I'd rather do almost anything else than clean house.  But there are times when you can't avoid it, and thisis  one. Now to go down on my hands and knees and remove the spots from the hardwood floors...

You may not hear from me for a while....

But you are still farsighted, no? Take off your glasses if you don't want to see that.

Downside is that you can't read much, at least not on paper.

Happy Earth Day!

Actually, I can read quite well, for the moment at least. May change a bit when I get the other eye done next week. But when you can see the grease marks on the wall from across the room, it's time for some serious cleaning, alas.
